Find Maximum Element Using Pointer Walk

Code

#include <stdio.h>

int find_max_element(int *ptr, int n) {
    int *end = ptr + n-1;
    int mx = *ptr;
    while (ptr <= end) {
        if (*ptr > mx) {
            mx = *ptr;
        }
        ptr++;
    }
    return mx;
}

int main() {
    int n;
    scanf("%d", &n);

    int arr[100];
    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
        scanf("%d", &arr[i]);
    }

    int result = find_max_element(arr, n);
    printf("%d", result);

    return 0;
}
